Does Magic Work?

magic grabs myth + dream to make things happen
it whispers: you can control your destiny
and, the human mind being what it is,
i believe we can

 

My scrolls are based on the figures and magic sigils of Geomancy. Each design reflects centuries of cultural tradition, interwoven with myth, faith, and the belief that we can take our fate into our own hands.

These symbols are tied to our greatest dreams and hopes. They have been passed from teacher to student because they stir something deep in the soul.

This, to me is sacred.

But…

The popular question is: does magic really work?

This is the part where a lot of magicians give some pretty dubious answers. I prefer to be honest.

I don’t know.


I find the scientific study of magic fascinating, and it has given us some very interesting information. I wrote a series on this when I first started altmagic. You might enjoy:

A School of Magic // magic is not supernatural

The Honest Magician // why I don’t pretend to know if magic works

The Skeptic Tests // on the type of magic that has been disproved

Three Magic Spells that Work // on the type of magic that has been proven

Does It Work? // sums up all of the above + how it relates to altmagic

To me, magic is the language of dreams. It’s an art that takes the power of the human mind and directs it toward the fulfillment of wishes. When something is magical, you feel it in your chest.
